Xie M, Zhang C, Zheng H, Zhang G, Zhang S. Peroxyl radicals from diketones enhanced the indirect photochemical transformation of carbamazepine: Kinetics, mechanisms, and products. WATER RESEARCH 2022; 217:118424. [PMID: 35429883 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2022.118424] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2021] [Revised: 03/19/2022] [Accepted: 04/05/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
In surface waters, photogenerated transients (e.g., hydroxyl radicals, carbonate radicals, singlet oxygen and the triplet states of dissolved organic matter) are known to play a role in the transformation of biorecalcitrant carbamazepine (CBZ). Small diketones, such as acetylacetone (AcAc) and butanedione (BD), are naturally abundant and have been proven to be effective precursors of carbon and oxygen centered radicals. However, the photochemical kinetics and mechanisms of coexisting diketones and CBZ are barely known. Herein, the effects of AcAc and BD on the photochemical conversion of CBZ were investigated compared with H2O2 which was the main ·OH precursor in the environment. An enhancing effect was observed for the degradation of CBZ by the addition of diketones. The enhancing effect of diketones was pH-dependent and much more significant than H2O2 under simulated solar irradiation. On the basis of the identification of transient species and the competition kinetic model, organic peroxyl radicals were found to play a dominant role in CBZ photodegradation, and the second-order rate constants of the reaction between CBZ and peroxyl radicals were determined to be approximately 107-108 M-1s-1. Furthermore, mutagenic acridine was found to be the major cumulative intermediate with a yield of > 30% in the presence of diketones, which might be an environmental concern. This work indicates that the coexistence of diketones and persistent organic pollutants might lead to some detrimental effects on aquatic environments if the water is exposed to sunlight.

Abstract
To date, there is still a lack of definite knowledge regarding the toxicity of Cu(OH)2 nanoparticles towards bacteria. This study was aimed at shedding light on the role played by released cupric ions in the toxicity of nanoparticles. To address this issue, the bactericidal activity of Cu(OH)2 was at first evaluated in sterile water, a medium in which particles are not soluble. In parallel, an isovalent substitution of cupric ions by Mg2+ was attempted in the crystal structure of Cu(OH)2 nanoparticles to increase their solubility and determine the impact on the bactericidal activity. For the first time, mixed Cu1-xMgx(OH)2 nanorods (x ≤ 0.1) of about 15 nm in diameter and a few hundred nanometers in length were successfully prepared by a simple co-precipitation at room temperature in mixed alkaline (NaOH/Na2CO3) medium. For E. coli, 100% reduction of one million CFU per mL (6 log10) occurs after only 180 min on contact with both Cu(OH)2 and Cu0.9Mg0.1(OH)2 nanorods. The entire initial inoculum of S. aureus is also killed by Cu(OH)2 after 180 min (100% or 6 log10 reduction), while 0.01% of these bacteria stay alive on contact with Cu0.9Mg0.1(OH)2 (99.99% or 4 log10 reduction). The bactericidal performances of Cu(OH)2 and the magnesium-substituted counterparts (i.e. Cu1-xMgx(OH)2) are not linked to cupric ions they release in water since their mass concentrations after 180 min are much lower than minimal concentrations inhibiting the growth of E. coli and S. aureus. Finally, an EPR spin trapping study reveals how these nanorods kill bacteria in water: only the presence of hydrogen peroxide, a by-product of the normal metabolism of oxygen in aerobic bacteria, allows the Cu(OH)2 and its magnesium-substituted counterparts to produce a lethal amount of free radicals, the majority of which are the highly toxic HO˙.

Abstract
Epidemiological studies have revealed that alcohol, red meat, and cooking oil (or linoleate) are risk factors for both gastric and colon cancers. A survey of the mutation spectra of the p53 tumor suppressor gene in these cancers suggested that the types of mutations and the hot spots are similar to those induced by acetaldehyde (AcAld) in an in vitro p53 mutation analysis system. Accordingly, various combinations of possible factors, components, or model compounds were reacted in an emulsion and tested for the generation of AcAld. Efficient AcAld formation was only observed with combinations of three factors, red meat homogenate (or heme/myoglobin), methyl linoleate, and ethanol, but not by any combination of the two. The generated AcAld levels (ca. 500 μM) far exceeded the minimum mutagenic concentration (40-100 μM) obtained using concentrations of meat homogenate (or heme/Mb), linoleate, and ethanol comparable to those in the stomach after an ordinary meal. A mutagenic level of AcAld (75 μM) was also generated with a physiological concentration of ethanol, heme, and linoleate in the colon. As a mechanism, linoleate hydroperoxide formation and its decomposition in the presence of myoglobin (or heme) to generate the OH radical seem to be involved in the ethanol-to-AcAld conversion.

Abstract
A novel chelated-Fe2+ catalyzed Fenton process (CCFP) was developed to enhance dewatering performance of anaerobically digested biosolid, and changes in floc morphology, extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) and heavy metals speciation were also investigated. The results showed that addition of chelating agents caused EPS solubilization by binding multivalent cations. Like traditional Fenton, CCFP performed well in improving anaerobically digested sludge dewatering property. The highly active radicals (OH, O2-) produced in classical Fenton and CCFP were responsible for sludge flocs destruction and consequently degradation of biopolymers into small molecules. Furthermore, more plentiful pores and channels were presented in cake after Fenton treatment, which was conducive to water drainage under mechanical compression. Additionally, a portion of active heavy metals in the form of oxidizable and reducible states were dissolved under CCFP. Therefore, CCFP could greatly simplify the operating procedure of Fenton conditioning and improve its process adaptability for harmless treatment of biological sludge.

Abstract
A randomized prospective clinical study performed on a group of 74 pregnant women (43 presenting with severe preeclampsia) proved that urinary levels of 15-F(2t)-isoprostane were significantly higher in preeclamptic patients relative to the control (3.05 vs. 2.00 ng/mg creatinine). Surprisingly enough, plasma levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 in both study groups were below the clinical reference range with no significant difference between the groups. In vitro study performed on isolated placental mitochondria and placental cell line showed that suicidal self-oxidation of cytochrome P450scc may lead to structural disintegration of heme, potentially contributing to enhancement of oxidative stress phenomena in the course of preeclampsia. As placental cytochrome P450scc pleiotropic activity is implicated in the metabolism of free radical mediated arachidonic acid derivatives as well as multiple Vitamin D3 hydroxylations and progesterone synthesis, we propose that Vitamin D3 might act as a competitive inhibitor of placental cytochrome P450scc preventing the production of lipid peroxides or excess progesterone synthesis, both of which may contribute to the etiopathogenesis of preeclampsia. The proposed molecular mechanism is in accord with the preliminary clinical observations on the surprisingly high efficacy of high-dose Vitamin D3 supplementation in prevention and treatment of preeclampsia.

Abstract
This review examines the involvement of cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes in the formation of reactive oxygen species in biological systems and discusses the possible involvement of reactive oxygen species and CYP enzymes in cancer. Reactive oxygen species are formed in biological systems as byproducts of the reduction of molecular oxygen and include the superoxide radical anion (∙O2-), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), hydroxyl radical (∙OH), hydroperoxyl radical (HOO∙), singlet oxygen ((1)O2), and peroxyl radical (ROO∙). Two endogenous sources of reactive oxygen species are the mammalian CYP-dependent microsomal electron transport system and the mitochondrial electron transport chain. CYP enzymes catalyze the oxygenation of an organic substrate and the simultaneous reduction of molecular oxygen. If the transfer of oxygen to a substrate is not tightly controlled, uncoupling occurs and leads to the formation of reactive oxygen species. Reactive oxygen species are capable of causing oxidative damage to cellular membranes and macromolecules that can lead to the development of human diseases such as cancer. In normal cells, intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species are maintained in balance with intracellular biochemical antioxidants to prevent cellular damage. Oxidative stress occurs when this critical balance is disrupted. Topics covered in this review include the role of reactive oxygen species in intracellular cell signaling and the relationship between CYP enzymes and cancer. Outlines of CYP expression in neoplastic tissues, CYP enzyme polymorphism and cancer risk, CYP enzymes in cancer therapy and the metabolic activation of chemical procarcinogens by CYP enzymes are also provided.

Abstract
The interaction of peroxidized cardiolipin with ferrocytochrome c induces two kinetically and chemically distinct processes. The first is a rapid oxidation of ferrocytochrome c, followed by a slower, irreversible disruption of heme c. The oxidation of ferrocytochrome c by peroxidized cardiolipin is explained by a Fenton-type reaction. Heme scission is a consequence of the radical-mediated reactions initiated by the interaction of ferric heme iron with peroxidized cardiolipin. Simultaneously with the heme c disruption, generation of hydroxyl radical is detected by EPR spectroscopy using the spin trapping technique. The resulting apocytochrome c sediments as a heterogeneous mixture of high aggregates, as judged by sedimentation analysis. Both the oxidative process and the destructive process were suppressed by nonionic detergents and/or high ionic strength. The mechanism for generating radicals and heme rupture is presented.

Abstract
The mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) is a major source of free radical production. However, due to the highly reactive nature of radical species and their short lifetimes, accurate detection and identification of these molecules in biological systems is challenging. The aim of this investigation was to determine the free radical species produced from the mitochondrial ETC by utilizing EPR spin-trapping techniques and the recently commercialized spin-trap, 5-(2,2-dimethyl-1,3-propoxycyclophosphoryl)-5-methyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (CYPMPO). We demonstrate that this spin-trap has the preferential quality of having minimal mitochondrial toxicity at concentrations required for radical detection. In rat heart mitochondria and submitochondrial particles supplied with NADH, the major species detected under physiological pH was a carbon-centered radical adduct, indicated by markedly large hyperfine coupling constant with hydrogen (a(H) > 2.0 mT). In the presence of the ETC inhibitors, the carbon-centered radical formation was increased and exhibited NADH concentration dependency. The same carbon-centered radical could also be produced with the NAD biosynthesis precursor, nicotinamide mononucleotide, in the presence of a catalytic amount of NADH. The results support the conclusion that the observed species is a complex I derived NADH radical. The formation of the NADH radical could be blocked by hydroxyl radical scavengers but not SOD. In vitro experiments confirmed that an NADH-radical is readily formed by hydroxyl radical but not superoxide anion, further implicating hydroxyl radical as an upstream mediator of NADH radical production. These findings demonstrate the identification of a novel mitochondrial radical species with potential physiological significance and highlight the diverse mechanisms and sites of production within the ETC.

Abstract
Many terpenes used as fragrance compounds autoxidize when exposed to air, forming allylic hydroperoxides that have the potential to be skin contact allergens. To trigger the immunotoxicity process that characterizes contact allergy, these hydroperoxides are supposed to bind covalently to proteins in the skin via radical pathways. We investigated the formation of reactive radical intermediates from 7-hydroperoxy-3,7-dimethylocta-1,5-dien-3-ol and 2-hydroperoxylimonene, responsible for the sensitizing potential acquired by autoxidized linalool and limonene. Both compounds were synthesized through new short and reproducible synthetic pathways. The hydroperoxide decomposition catalyzed by Fe(II)/Fe(III) redox systems, playing a key role in degradating peroxides in vivo, was examined by spin-trapping-EPR spectroscopy. Alkoxyl and carbon-centered free radicals derived from the hydroperoxides were successfully trapped by the spin-trap 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide, whereas peroxyl radicals were characterized by spin-trapping studies with 5-diethoxyphosphoryl-5-methyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide. Using liquid chromatography combined with mass spectrometry, we demonstrated the formation of adducts, via radical mechanisms induced by Fe(II)/Fe(III), between the hydroperoxides and N-acetylhistidine methyl ester, a model amino acid that is prone to radical reactions. Free radicals derived from these hydroperoxides can thus induce amino acid chemical modifications via radical mechanisms. The study of these mechanisms will help to understand the sensitizing potential of hydroperoxides.

Abstract
Oxidative stress-related damage to the DNA macromolecule produces a multitude of lesions that are implicated in mutagenesis, carcinogenesis, reproductive cell death, and aging. Many of these lesions have been studied and characterized by various techniques. Of the techniques that are available, the comet assay, HPLC-EC, GC-MS, HPLC-MS, and especially HPLC-MS/MS remain the most widely used and have provided invaluable information on these lesions. However, accurate measurement of DNA damage has been a matter of debate. In particular, there have been reports of artifactual oxidation leading to erroneously high damage estimates. Further, most of these techniques measure the end product of a sequence of events and thus provide only limited information on the initial radical mechanism. We report here a qualitative measurement of DNA damage induced by a Cu(II)-H₂O₂ oxidizing system using immuno-spin trapping (IST) with electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), MS, and MS/MS. The radical generated is trapped by DMPO immediately upon formation. The DMPO adduct formed is initially EPR active but subsequently is oxidized to the stable nitrone, which can then be detected by IST and further characterized by MS and MS/MS.

Abstract
Triplet-excited riboflavin ((3)RF*) was found by laser flash photolysis to be quenched by polyunsaturated fatty acid methyl esters in tert-butanol/water (7:3, v/v) in a second-order reaction with k approximately 3.0 x 10(5) L mol(-1) s(-1) at 25 degrees C for methyl linoleate and 3.1 x 10(6) L mol(-1) s(-1), with DeltaH(double dagger) = 22.6 kJ mol(-1) and DeltaS(double dagger) = -62.3 J K(-1) mol(-1), for methyl linolenate in acetonitrile/water (8:2, v/v). For methyl oleate, k was <10(4) L mol(-1) s(-1). For comparison, beta-casein was found to have a rate constant k approximately 4.9 x 10(8) L mol(-1) s(-1). Singlet-excited flavin was not quenched by the esters as evidenced by insensitivity of steady-state fluorescence to their presence. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations showed that electron transfer from unsaturated fatty acid esters to triplet-excited flavins is endergonic, while a formal hydrogen atom transfer is exergonic (DeltaG(o)(HAT) = -114.3, -151.2, and -151.2 kJ mol(-1) for oleate, linoleate, and linolenate, respectively, in acetonitrile). The reaction is driven by acidity of the lipid cation radical for which a pK(a) approximately -0.12 was estimated by DFT calculations. Absence of electrochemical activity in acetonitrile during cyclic voltammetry up to 2.0 V versus NHE confirmed that DeltaG(o)(ET) > 0 for electron transfer. Interaction of methyl esters with (3)RF* is considered as initiation of the radical chain, which is subsequently propagated by combination reactions with residual oxygen. In this respect, carbon-centered and alkoxyl radicals were detected using the spin trapping technique in combination with electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. Moreover, quenching of (3)RF* yields, directly or indirectly, radical species which are capable of initiating oxidation in unsaturated fatty acid methyl esters. Still, deactivation of triplet-excited flavins by lipid derivatives was slower than by proteins (factor up to 10(4)), which react preferentially by electron transfer. Depending on the reaction environment in biological systems (including food), protein radicals are expected to interfere in the mechanism of light-induced lipid oxidation.

Abstract
AQ4N [1,4-bis{[2-(dimethylamino-N-oxide)ethyl]amino}-5,8-dihydroxyanthracene-9,10-dione], a prodrug with two dimethylamino N-oxide groups, is converted to the topoisomerase II inhibitor AQ4 [1,4-bis{[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl]amino}-5,8-dihydroxy-anthracene-9,10-dione] by reduction of the N-oxides to dimethylamino substituents. Earlier studies showed that several drug-metabolizing cytochrome P450 (P450) enzymes can catalyze this reductive reaction under hypoxic conditions comparable with those in solid tumors. CYP2S1 and CYP2W1, two extrahepatic P450 enzymes identified from the human genome whose functions are unknown, are expressed in hypoxic tumor cells at much higher levels than in normal tissue. Here, we demonstrate that CYP2S1, contrary to a published report (Mol Pharmacol 76:1031-1043, 2009), is efficiently reduced by NADPH-P450 reductase. Most importantly, both CYP2S1 and CYP2W1 are better catalysts for the reductive activation of AQ4N to AQ4 than all previously examined P450 enzymes. The overexpression of CYP2S1 and CYP2W1 in tumor tissues, together with their high catalytic activities for AQ4N activation, suggests that they may be exploited for the localized activation of anticancer prodrugs.

Abstract
The reaction of ram seminal vesicle (RSV) microsomes with arachidonic acid (AA) was examined using electron spin resonance (ESR), high performance liquid chromatography-electron spin resonance spectrometry (HPLC-ESR), and high performance liquid chromatography-electron spin resonance-mass spectrometry (HPLC-ESR-MS) combined use of spin trapping technique. A prominent ESR spectrum (alpha(N) = 1.58 mT and alpha(H)beta = 0.26 mT) was observed in the complete reaction mixture of ram seminal vesicle microsomes with arachidonic acid containing 2.0 mg protein/ml ram seminal vesicle (RSV) microsomal suspension, 0.8 mM arachidonic acid, 0.1 M 4-POBN, and 24 mM tris/HCl buffer (pH 7.4). The ESR spectrum was hardly observed for the complete reaction mixture without the RSV microsomes. The formation of the radical appears to be catalyzed by the microsomal components. In the absence of AA, the intensity of the ESR signal decreased to 16 +/- 15% of the complete reaction mixture, suggesting that the radical is derived from AA. For the complete reaction mixture with boiled microsomes, the intensity of the ESR signal decreased to 49 +/- 4% of the complete reaction mixture. The intensity of the ESR signal of the complete reaction mixture with indomethacin decreased to 74 +/- 20% of the complete reaction mixture, suggesting that cyclooxygenese partly participates in the reaction. A peak was detected on the elution profile of HPLC-ESR analysis of the complete reaction mixture. To determine the structure of the peak, an HPLC-ESR-MS analysis was performed. The HPLC-ESR-MS analysis of the peak showed two prominent ions, m/z 266 and m/z 179, suggesting that the peak is a 4-POBN/pentyl radical adduct. An HPLC-ESR analysis of the authentic 4-POBN/pentyl radical adduct comfirmed the identification.

Abstract
In order to explore the mechanism of myoglobinuric renal toxicity, detection and identification of free radicals was performed for the reaction mixtures of bovine kidney microsomes. EPR measurements showed prominent signals for the control reaction mixture containing 2.0 mg protein/ml bovine kidney microsomes, 5 mM NADPH, 0.1 M 4-POBN and 29 mM phosphate buffer (pH 7.4). Addition of myoglobin (Mb) to the control reaction mixture resulted in increase of EPR peak height. The result indicates that Mb enhances the radical formation. An HPLC-EPR measurement showed three peaks with retention times of 29.4 min (P(1)), 32.4 min (P(2)) and 46.6 min (P(3)). HPLC-EPR-MS analyses of P(1) and P(2) gave ions at m/z 282. The results show that 4-POBN/hydroxypentyl radical adducts form in the reaction mixture. An HPLC-EPR-MS analysis of P(3) gave ions at m/z 266, indicating that 4-POBN/pentyl radical adduct forms in the reaction mixture.

Abstract
Recently, phospholipid peroxidation products gained a reputation as key regulatory molecules and participants in oxidative signaling pathways. During apoptosis, a mitochondria-specific phospholipid, cardiolipin (CL), interacts with cytochrome c (cyt c) to form a peroxidase complex that catalyzes CL oxidation; this process plays a pivotal role in the mitochondrial stage of the execution of the cell death program. This review is focused on redox mechanisms and essential structural features of cyt c's conversion into a CL-specific peroxidase that represent an interesting and maybe still unique example of a functionally significant ligand change in hemoproteins. Furthermore, specific characteristics of CL in mitochondria--its asymmetric transmembrane distribution and mechanisms of collapse, the regulation of its synthesis, remodeling, and fatty acid composition--are given significant consideration. Finally, new concepts in drug discovery based on the design of mitochondria-targeted inhibitors of cyt c/CL peroxidase and CL peroxidation with antiapoptotic effects are presented.

Abstract
Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy and the spin-trapping technique were used to investigate the capacity of several hemoglobin (Hb) forms of rainbow trout (oxyHb and metHb), free hemin (oxidized form of heme group), and hemin complexed with bovine serum albumin (BSA) to promote formation of free radicals via fragmentation of preformed lipid hydroperoxides. Cumene hydroperoxide (CumOOH) was used as a model for lipid hydroperoxide, and free radicals were monitored by stabilizing with the spin traps alpha-(4-pyridyl-1-oxide)-N-tert-butylnitrone (POBN) and 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide (DMPO). Two different types of free radicals, hydroxyl and carbon-centered radicals, were identified as a result of the interaction of the heme-containing systems and CumOOH. Carbon-centered radicals were found to be mainly heme-mediated because the addition of the iron-chelating agent EDTA did not affect the formation of POBN/carbon-centered adducts. Hemin alone was the best promoter for the production of POBN/carbon-centered radicals in the presence of low hydroperoxide concentrations (below equimolar condition over heme group), whereas hemin/BSA and oxyHb were more active in generating radicals at high hydroperoxide concentrations or after successive interactions with hydroperoxides. This finding can be explained by the coexistence of two different facts: (i) the interaction between hemin and lipid hydroperoxides seems to be more efficient in the case of free hemin compared to heme-protein complexes and (ii) a faster degradation of hemin is produced without the presence of a protein fraction, globin or albumin. The comparison of oxyHb and metHb also suggested that both Hb redox states have similar capacities to generate oxidative stress via cleavage of preformed lipid hydroperoxides.

Abstract
Laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LDI-TOF MS) was used to characterize olive and sunflower oils before and after thermally assisted oxidation in order to develop a rapid fingerprinting method for oil that contains unchanged and oxidized components. No matrix was used to assist laser desorption, and simplified mass spectra were obtained in the mass range of interest (m/z 500-1000), where triacyl- and diacylglycerol ions were observed. Sample preparation was reduced to dissolving oil in chloroform saturated with NaCl. Sodiated triacylglycerols (TAGs), their epoxy/hydroxy and hydroperoxy derivatives, as well as TAGs with shortened chain fatty acids (beta-scission products) were clearly observed in the spectra. LDI-TOF MS rapidly provides semiquantitative information about the oxidation level of edible oil, and thus represents a very useful quality control tool.

Abstract
The mechanism behind the observed inactivation of human P450 2B6 by phencyclidine (PCP) has been evaluated over the past 2 decades. The scope of the current investigation was to contribute to the fundamental knowledge of PCP oxidation and perhaps the mechanism behind P450 inactivation. To study the chemistry of PCP oxidation, we subjected PCP to the Fenton reagent. Under Fenton chemistry conditions, oxidation on all three PCP rings was observed by liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). When PCP was incubated with the Fenton system in the presence of glutathione (GSH), three GSH-PCP conjugates were identified. Subsequent LC-MS/MS analysis of these conjugates revealed two species that had GSH attached to the cyclohexane ring of PCP and a third conjugate in which GSH was adducted to the piperidine ring. When PCP was incubated across a panel of P450 enzymes, several enzymes, including P450s 2D6 and 3A4, were able to catalyze the formation of the PCP iminium ion, whereas P450s 2B6 and 2C19 were exclusively able to hydroxylate secondary carbons on the cyclohexane ring of PCP. Subsequent mechanistic experiments revealed that only P450s 2B6 and 2C19 demonstrated loss of catalytic activity after preincubation with 10 microM PCP. Finally, investigation of P450 2B6 inactivation using structural analogs of PCP revealed that blocking the para-carbon atom on the cyclohexane ring of PCP from oxidation protected the P450 2B6 from inactivation, which suggests that a reactive intermediate generated during the hydroxylation of the cyclohexane ring may be linked to the mechanism of inactivation of P450 2B6 by PCP.

Abstract
In order to develop spin traps with an optimal ratio between hydrophilic and lipophilic properties, low toxicity, and high stability of spin adducts (especially with superoxide radicals), several EMPO-derived spin traps have recently been synthesized forming more stable superoxide adducts (t(1/2) > 20 min) than DMPO or DEPMPO. In this study, ESR-, 1H-, and 13C-NMR data of several phenyl- or n-pentyl-substituted EMPO derivatives are presented with full signal assignment. Methyl groups at position 3 or 4 stabilized the superoxide adducts considerably. Spin adducts from other oxygen- and carbon-centered radicals (e.g., derived from methanol or linoleic acid hydroperoxide) are also described.

Abstract
Lipid alkyl radicals generated from polyunsaturated fatty acids via chemical or enzymatic H-abstraction have been a pathologically important target to quantify. In the present study, we established a novel method for the quantification of lipid alkyl radicals via nitroxyl radical spin-trapping. These labile lipid alkyl radicals were converted into nitroxyl radical-lipid alkyl radical adducts using 3-carbamoyl-2,2,5,5-tetramethyl-3-pyrroline-N-oxyl (CmdeltaP) (a partition coefficient between octanol and water is approximately 3) as a spin-trapping agent. The resulting CmdeltaP-lipid alkyl radical adducts were determined by HPLC with postcolumn online thermal decomposition, in which the adducts were degraded into nitroxyl radicals by heating at 100 degrees C for 2 min. The resulting nitroxyl radicals were selectively and sensitively detected by electrochemical detection. With the present method, we, for the first time, determined the lipid alkyl radicals generated from linoleic acid, linolenic acid, and arachidonic acid via soybean lipoxygenase-1 or the radical initiator 2,2'-azobis(2,4-dimethyl-valeronitrile).

Abstract
Oxygen radicals are involved in the onset of many diseases. Adequate spin traps are required for identification and localisation of free radical formation in biological systems. Superoxide spin adducts with half-lives up to 20 min at physiological pH have recently been reported to be formed from derivatives of the spin trap 5-ethoxycarbonyl-5-methyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (EMPO). This is a major improvement over DMPO (t(1/2) ca. 45 s), and even DEPMPO (t(1/2) ca. 14 min). In this study, an additional methyl group was introduced into position 3 or 4 of the pyrroline ring which greatly increases the stability of the respective superoxide spin adducts. In addition, the ethoxy group of EMPO was exchanged by either a propoxy- or an iso-propoxy group in order to test the influence of increasing lipophilic properties of the investigated spin traps. The structure of all compounds was confirmed by (1)H and (13)C-NMR with full signal assignment. In comparison with EMPO (t(1/2) ca. 8 min) or DEPMPO (t(1/2) ca. 14 min), the superoxide adducts of all novel spin traps were considerably higher (t(1/2) ca. 12-55 min). In addition, various other spin adducts obtained from oxygen-centered as well as carbon-centered radicals (e.g. derived from methanol or linoleic acid hydroperoxide) were also detected.

Abstract
Linoleic acid radical products formed by radical reaction (Fenton conditions) were trapped using 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrrolidine-N-oxide (DMPO) and analysed by reversed-phase liquid chromatography coupled to electrospray mass spectrometry (LC-MS). The linoleic acid radical species detected as DMPO spin adducts comprised oxidized linoleic acid and short-chain radical species that resulted from the breakdown of carbon and oxygen centred radicals. Based on the m/z values, the short-chain products were identified as alkyl and carboxylic acid DMPO radical adducts that exhibited different elution times. The ions identified as DMPO radical adducts were studied by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The LC-MS/MS spectra of linoleic acid DMPO radical adducts exhibited the fragment ion at m/z 114 and/or the loss of neutral molecule of 113 Da (DMPO) or 131 Da (DMPO + H2O), indicated to be DMPO adducts. The short-chain products identified allowed inference of the radical oxidation along the linoleic acid chain by abstraction of hydrogen atoms in carbon atoms ranging from C-8 to C-14. Other ions containing the fragment ion at m/z 114 in the LC-MS/MS spectra were attributed to DMPO adducts of unsaturated aldehydes, hydroxy-aldehydes and oxocarboxylic acids. The identification of aldehydic products formed by radical oxidation of linoleic acid peroxidation products, as short-chain product DMPO adducts, is a means of identifying lipid peroxidation products.

Abstract
Free radicals are involved in the onset of many diseases, therefore the availability of adequate spin traps is crucial to the identification and localization of free radical formation in biological systems. In recent studies several hydrophilic compounds of 2-ethoxycarbonyl-2-methyl-pyrroline-N-oxide (EMPO) have been found to form rather stable superoxide spin adducts with half-lives up to twenty minutes at physiological pH. This is a major improvement over DMPO (t1/2=ca. 45 s), and even over DEPMPO (t1/2=ca. 14 min), the best commercially available spin trap for the unambiguous detection of superoxide radicals. In order to allow the detection of superoxide and also other radicals in lipid environment a series of more lipophilic derivatives of EMPO was synthesized and their structure unambiguously characterized by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. In this way, six different compounds with a n-butyl group in position 5 and either an ethoxy- (EBPO), propoxy- (PBPO), iso-propoxy- (iPBPO), butoxy- (BBPO), sec-butoxy- (sBBPO) or tert-butoxycarbonyl group (tBBPO) in position 5 of the pyrroline ring were obtained and fully analytically characterized (NMR, IR). The stability of the superoxide adducts of all investigated spin traps were comparable with EMPO (t1/2=ca. 8 min), except for the two compounds bearing an additional methyl group in position 3 or 4 of the pyrroline ring, 5-butyl-5-ethoxycarbonyl-3-methyl-pyrroline-N-oxide (BEMPO-3) and 5-butyl-5-ethoxycarbonyl-4-methyl-pyrroline-N-oxide (BEMPO-4), of which the superoxide adducts were stable for more than 30 min. Spin adducts of other carbon- and oxygen-centered radicals were also investigated.

Abstract
Fatty acid hydroperoxides arise from unsaturated fatty acids in the presence of oxygen and elevated temperature during processing of food. Here we have studied their effects on gene expression in colorectal tumor cells using linoleic acid hydroperoxide (LOOH) as a model compound. Its addition to the medium of LT97 human adenoma cells and SW480 human carcinoma cells enhanced the production of intracellular hydrogen peroxide. Furthermore, in both cell lines, increases in VEGF mRNA and protein were observed. Unoxidized linoleic acid had little or no activity. Concomitantly, COX-2 expression was up-regulated. In the LT97 cells, the COX inhibitors SC58560 and SC58236 completely prevented the VEGF induction, suggesting that the effect was dependent on prostaglandin synthesis. In vivo prostaglandin-mediated induction of VEGF secretion is known to be essential for the growth of adenomatous polyps and their progression to carcinomas. Therefore, our results for the first time implicate dietary lipid hydroperoxide as a key risk factor in colon carcinogenesis.

Abstract
The detection of highly reactive free radicals generated in biological systems by an ESR spin-trapping technique is always difficult and limited due to the short lifetimes of ESR active spin-trapping radical adducts and poor structural information provided by ESR spectra. In this investigation, we have for the first time employed anti-5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DMPO) polyclonal antiserum that specifically recognizes stable, ESR silent end products of DMPO radical adducts and combined HPLC with ELISA, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) to separate and characterize DMPO nitrone adducts derived from free radical metabolites. When mircoperoxidase-11 (MP-11) reacted with DTT in the presence of DMPO with or without H2O2, we detected radical-derived DMPO nitrone adducts by ELISA. Similar results were obtained when MP-11 was replaced by hemin. To identify the DMPO nitrone adducts formed in both reaction systems, LC separation was carried out, and the fractions eluted from the LC column were collected and analyzed by ELISA. In both reaction mixtures, we found that only one peak with the same retention time showed a strong positive ELISA signal, suggesting that this peak was from radical-derived DMPO nitrone adducts and that both systems produced the same free radical metabolites. Using online LC/ESI-MS, LC/MS/MS, and (1)H NMR, we demonstrated that the DMPO nitrone adducts formed are from the DMPO adducts of the sulfur-centered radical of DTT. The successful application of LC/ELISA, LC/MS, and LC/MS/MS in this study makes it possible to separate and identify the stable DMPO nitrone adducts derived from free radical metabolites generated in biological systems.

Abstract
Several derivatives of N-t-butyl-alpha-phenylnitrone (PBN) such as N-2-(2-ethoxycarbonyl-propyl)-alpha-phenylnitrone (EPPN) have recently been reported to form superoxide spin adducts (t(1/2) ca. 2-7 min at pH 7.0), which are considerably more stable than their respective PBN or DMPO adducts (t(1/2) ca. 10 and 45 s, respectively). In continuation of our studies on structure optimization of EPPN derivatives, a series of 12 novel spin traps with 2-, 3- and 4-pyridinyl substituents was synthesized and fully characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and IR spectroscopy. In addition to the replacement of the phenyl ring by a 2-, 3- or 4-pyridinyl substituent, the ethoxy group of the parent compound EPPN was replaced by either a propoxy, iso-propoxy, or cyclopropylmethoxy moiety. Superoxide adducts of all PPyN derivatives were considerably more stable than those of the respective EPPN derivatives with half-lives ranging from about 6 to 11 min. In addition, alkoxyl radical adducts were also considerably more stable than those of the EPPN series. Hydroxyl radical adducts were not detected, on the other hand, very stable spin adducts were formed from a series of carbon centered radicals, e.g. from the methyl or hydroxymethyl radical. The novel spin traps are offering an alternative to PBN or POBN, especially where the higher stability of oxygen-centered radical adducts is of major importance. All of them can easily be synthesized from commercially available compounds in two or three steps.

Abstract
The N-t-butyl-alpha-phenylnitrone derivative N-2-(2-ethoxycarbonyl-propyl)-alpha-phenylnitrone (EPPN) has recently been reported to form a superoxide spin adduct (t(1/2)=5.25 min at pH 7.0), which is considerably more stable than the respective N-t-butyl-alpha-phenylnitrone or 5,5-dimethylpyrroline N-oxide adducts (t(1/2) approximately 10 and 45s, respectively). In continuation of our previous studies on structure optimization of 5-(ethoxycarbonyl)-5-methyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide derivatives, a series of six different EPPN derivatives was synthesized and characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and IR spectroscopy. The ethoxy group of EPPN was replaced by a propoxy, iso-propoxy, n-butoxy, sec-butoxy, and tert-butoxy moiety, as well as the phenyl by a pyridyl ring. Electron spin resonance spectra and stabilities of the superoxide adducts of the propoxy derivatives were found to be similar to those of the respective EPPN adduct, whereas the electron spin resonance spectra of the superoxide adducts of N-2-(2-ethoxycarbonyl-propyl)-alpha-(4-pyridyl) nitrone and the butoxy derivatives were accompanied by decomposition products. In contrast to the 5-(ethoxycarbonyl)-5-methyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide series, no significant improvement of the superoxide adduct stability could be obtained when the ethoxy group was replaced by other substituents. Carbon centered radical adducts derived from methanol, ethanol, formic acid and linoleic acid hydroperoxide were more stable than those of 5,5-dimethylpyrroline N-oxide, whereas among the alkoxyl radicals only the methoxyl radical adduct could be detected.

Abstract
The formation of linoleic acid radical species under the oxidative conditions of the Fenton reaction (using hydrogen peroxide and Fe (II)) was monitored by FAB-MS and ES-MS using the spin trap 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrrolidine-N-oxide, DMPO. Both the FAB and ES mass spectra were very similar and showed the presence of ions corresponding to carbon- and oxygen centered spin adducts (DMPO/L*, DMPO/LO*, and DMPO/LOO*). Cyclic structures, formed between the DMPO oxygen and the neighboring carbon of the fatty acid, were also observed. Electrospray tandem mass spectrometry of these ions was performed to confirm the proposed structure of these adducts. All MS/MS spectra showed an ion at m/z 114, correspondent to the [DMPO + H]+, and a fragment ion due to loss of DMPO (loss of 113 Da), confirming that they are DMPO adducts. ES-MS/MS spectra of alkoxyl radical adducts (DMPO/LO*) showed an additional ion at m/z 130 [DMPO - O + H]+, while ES MS/MS of peroxyl radical adducts (DMPO/LOO*) showed a fragment ion at m/z 146 [DMPO - OO + H]+, confirming both structures. Other fragment ions were observed, such as alkyl acylium radical ions, formed by cleavage of the alkyl chain after loss of water and the DMPO molecule. The identification of fragment ions observed in the MS/MS spectra of the different DMPO adducts suggests the occurrence of structural isomers containing the DMPO moiety both at C9 and C13. The use of ES tandem mass spectrometry, associated with spin trapping experiments, has been shown to be a valuable tool for the structural characterization of carbon and oxygen-centered spin adducts of lipid radicals.

Abstract
The title cluster (Pd(3)(2+)) exhibits a pronounced affinity for Br(-) ions to form the very stable Pd(3)(Br)(+) adduct. Upon a 2-electron reduction, a dissociative process occurs generating Pd(3)(0) and eliminating Br(-) according to an ECE mechanism (electrochemical, chemical, electrochemical). At a lower temperature (i.e. -20 degrees C), both ECE and EEC processes operate. This cluster also activates the C-Br bond, and this work deals with the reactivity of Pd(3)(2+) with 2,3,4-tri-O-acetyl-5-thioxylopyranosyl bromide (Xyl-Br), both alpha- and beta-isomers. The observed inorganic product is Pd(3)(Br)(+) again, and it is formed according to an associative mechanism involving Pd(3)(2+).Xyl-Br host-guest assemblies. In an attempt to render the C-Br bond activation catalytic, these species are investigated under reduction conditions at two potentials (-0.9 and -1.25 V vs SCE). In the former case, the major product is Xyl-H, issued from a radical intermediate Xyl(*) abstracting an H atom from the solvent. Evidence for Xyl(*) is provided by the trapping with TEMPO (2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy) and DMPO (5,5'-dimethylpyrroline-N-oxyde). In the second case, only one product is observed, 3,4-di-O-acetyl-5-thioxylal, which is issued from the Xyl(-)() intermediate anion.

Abstract
Many electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra of 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DMPO) radical adducts from the reaction of organic hydroperoxides with heme proteins or Fe(2+) were assigned to the adducts of DMPO with peroxyl, alkoxyl, and alkyl radicals. In particular, the controversial assignment of DMPO/peroxyl radical adducts was based on the close similarity of their ESR spectra to that of the DMPO/superoxide radical adduct in conjunction with their insensitivity to superoxide dismutase, which distinguishes the peroxyl adducts from the DMPO/superoxide adduct. Although recent reports assigned the spectra suggested to be DMPO/peroxyl radical adducts to the DMPO/methoxyl adduct based on independent synthesis of the adduct and/or (17)O-labeling, (17)O-labeling is extremely expensive, and both of these assignments were still based on hyperfine coupling constants, which have not been confirmed by independent techniques. In this study, we have used online high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC or LC)/ESR, electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) to separate and directly characterize DMPO oxygen-centered radical adducts formed from the reaction of Fe(2+) with t-butyl or cumene hydroperoxide. In each reaction system, two DMPO oxygen-centered radical adducts were separated and detected by online LC/ESR. The first DMPO radical adduct from both systems showed identical chromatographic retention times (t(R) = 9.6 min) and hyperfine coupling constants (a(N) = 14.51 G, a(H)(beta) = 10.71 G, and a(H)(gamma) = 1.32 G). The ESI-MS and MS/MS spectra demonstrated that this radical was the DMPO/methoxyl radical adduct, not the peroxyl radical adduct as was thought at one time, although its ESR spectrum is nearly identical to that of the DMPO/superoxide radical adduct. Similarly, based on their MS/MS spectra, we verified that the second adducts (a(N) = 14.86 G and a(H)(beta) = 16.06 G in the reaction system containing t-butyl hydroperoxide and a(N) = 14.60 G and a(H)(beta) = 15.61 G in the reaction mixture containing cumene hydroperoxide), previously assigned as DMPO adducts of t-butyloxyl and cumyloxyl radical, were indeed from trapping t-butyloxyl and cumyloxyl radicals, respectively.

Abstract
Organic hydroperoxides are of great utility in probing the reaction mechanism and the toxicological consequences of lipid peroxidation. In the present study, ESR spin-trapping was employed to investigate the peroxidation of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase (CcO) with t-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BuOOH) and cumene hydroperoxide (CumOOH). The spin trap 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DMPO) was used to detect the radical species formed from the reaction of CcO with t-BuOOH. The presence of t-BuOOH-derived alkoxyl radical (t-BuO*) as the primary radical indicates reductive scission of the O-O bond by CcO. The ESR signal of DMPO/*Ot-Bu can be partially abolished by cyanide, implying that the reductive cleavage involved the haem a(3)Cu(B) binuclear site of CcO. A nitroso spin trap, 2-methyl-2-nitrosopropane (MNP), was used to detect and identify radical species from the reaction of CcO with CumOOH. In addition to the t-BuOOH-derived methyl, hydroxylmethyl and tertiary carbon-centred radicals, a protein-derived radical was detected. The intensity of the ESR signal from the protein radical increased with the CumOOH concentration at low CumOOH/CcO ratios, with maximal intensity at a ratio of 100 mol of CumOOH/mol of CcO. The immobilized protein radical adduct of MNP was stable and persistent after dialysis; it was also resistant to proteolytic digestion, suggesting that it was formed in the transmembrane region, a region that is not accessible to proteases. Its signal was greatly enhanced when CcO cysteine residues were chemically modified by N-ethylmaleimide, when the tryptophan residues in CcO were oxidized by N-bromosuccimide, and when tyrosine residues on the surface of CcO were iodinated, showing that a radical equilibrium was established among the cysteine, tryptophan and tyrosine residues of the protein-centred radical. Pre-treatment of CcO with cyanide prevented detectable MNP adduct formation, confirming that the haem a(3)-Cu(B) binuclear centre was the initial reaction site. When the CcO was pre-treated with 10 mM (100 equivalents) of CumOOH, the enzyme activity decreased by more than 20%. This inhibition was persistent after dialysis, suggesting that the detected protein-centred radical was, in part, involved in the irreversible inactivation by CumOOH. Visible spectroscopic analysis revealed that the haem a of CcO was not affected during the reaction. However, the addition of pyridine to the reaction mixture under alkaline conditions resulted in the destruction of the haem centre of CcO, suggesting that its protein matrix rather than its haem a is the target of oxidative damage by the organic hydroperoxide.

Abstract
The compound 5-(ethoxycarbonyl)-5-methyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (EMPO) is a hydrophilic cyclic nitrone spin trap, which, in contrast to DMPO, forms a relatively stable superoxide adduct (t(1/2)=8.6 min) with an EPR spectrum similar to the respective DMPO adduct. In order to find the optimal degree of lipophilicity of this novel type of spin trap with respect to the detection of radicals formed during lipid peroxidation, the ethoxy group of EMPO was replaced by alkoxy substituents of increasing chain length, leading to the methoxy- (MeMPO), 1-propoxy- (PrMPO), 1-butoxy- (BuMPO), and 1-octyloxy- (OcMPO) derivatives of EMPO. The stability of their superoxide adducts was found to be strongly dependent on the size of the alkoxycarbonyl group. Increasing chain length of the alkoxyl substituent decreased the stability of alkoxyl radical adducts of MeMPO, EMPO, and PrMPO, but increased the stability of OcMPO adducts. The stability of alkoxyl radical adducts of BuMPO, on the other hand, were practically independent of the size of the alkoxyl group. Detection of lipid alkoxyl radicals formed by peroxidizing linoleic acid in a stationary system was therefore only possible with the most lipophilic spin trap, OcMPO. However, with the more hydrophilic spin traps MeMPO, EMPO, PrMPO, and BuMPO optimal EPR signal intensity could be obtained when a slow-flow system was used. Thus, within this series EMPO is the best spin trap for the detection of superoxide; OcMPO, on the other hand, is most suitable for the detection of lipid alkoxyl radicals.

Abstract
Detection of oxygen-centered radicals was performed using the spin trap 1,3,3-trimethyl-6-azabicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6-ene-N-oxide (Trazon), a bicyclic nitrone spin trap that is easily synthesized from the corresponding amine via hydrogen peroxide mediated oxidation in the presence of the catalyst, sodium tungstate. Compared to monocyclic spin traps such as 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DMPO) or 5-(diethoxyphosphoryl)-5-methyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DEPMPO), the ESR spectra of Trazon spin adducts provide additional structural information due to long-range hyperfine splitting constants and also due to the fact that different stereoisomers can be distinguished. This is especially helpful for the detection of lipid-derived alkoxyl radicals which can be identified according to their characteristic hyperfine splitting pattern. Due to the relatively high stability of the Trazon spin adducts with lipid alkoxyl radicals, which were formed from peroxidizing linoleic acid, ESR experiments could be performed using a stationary system, whereas a slow-flow system is recommended for DMPO. A series of structurally different alkoxyl radical adducts were synthesized by iron-catalyzed nucleophilic addition of the respective alcohol to the spin trap Trazon and the spectra were analyzed by computer simulation. Both the molecular weight of the alcohol and the position of the alcoholic hydroxyl group were of significant influence on the ESR spectra. Two stereochemically different spin adducts were formed in a ratio typical of the alcohol used, thus allowing structural classification of the alkoxyl radical trapped.

Abstract
Beta-carotene and alpha-tocopherol are important antioxidants biologically, but whether their oxidized products are toxic or not remains to be discovered. Here, we chromatographically separated 5 pure products or isomeric mixtures from reaction mixtures of beta-carotene and reactive oxygens, and 17 lipid-radical scavenging products of alpha-tocopherol. The products were tested for mutagenicity using Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA100, TA102, and TA104, in the presence and absence of S9. None showed mutagenicity against any of the four strains, or cytotoxicity that influenced the survival of the bacteria. Lipid-peroxides have been known to increase the formation of mutagens from dietary procarcinogens such as heterocyclic amines. So, we also measured the activity to increase 3-amino-1-methyl-5H-pyrido[4,3-b]indole (Trp-P-2) mutagenicity. The products from beta-carotene and alpha-tocopherol did not increase, but rather several of them suppressed, the mutagenicity of Trp-P-2. Thus, the products of beta-carotene and alpha-tocopherol formed after the antioxidant actions were not genotoxic.

Abstract
A reaction of 13-hydroperoxide octadecadienoic acid (13-HPODE) with cytochrome c was analysed using ESR, HPLC-ESR and HPLC-ESR-MS by the combined use of the spin-trapping technique. The ESR, HPLC-ESR and HPLC-ESR-MS analyses showed that cytochrome c catalyses formation of pentyl and octanoic acid radicals from 13-HPODE. On the other hand, only the alpha-(4-pyridyl-1-oxide)-N-t-butylnitrone/octanoic acid radical adduct was detected in the elution profile of HPLC-ESR for a mixture of 13-HPODE with haematin, indicating that haematin catalyses the formation of octanoic acid radical. In addition, the reaction of 13-HPODE with cytochrome c was inhibited by chlorogenic acid, caffeic acid and ferulic acid via two possible mechanisms, i.e. reducing cytochrome c (chlorogenic acid and caffeic acid) and scavenging the radical intermediates (chlorogenic acid, caffeic acid and ferulic acid).

Abstract
Polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) peroxyl radicals play a crucial role in lipid oxidation. ESR spectroscopy with the spin-trapping technique is one of the most direct methods for radical detection. There are many reports of the detection of PUFA peroxyl radical adducts; however, it has recently been reported that attempted spin trapping of organic peroxyl radicals at room temperature formed only alkoxyl radical adducts in detectable amounts. Therefore, we have reinvestigated spin trapping of the linoleic, arachidonic, and linolenic acid-derived PUFA peroxyl radicals. The slow-flow technique allowed us to obtain well-resolved ESR spectra of PUFA-derived radical adducts in a mixture of soybean lipoxygenase, PUFA, and the spin trap 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DMPO). However, interpretation of the ESR spectra was complicated by the overlapping of the PUFA-derived alkoxyl radical adduct spectra. In order to understand these spectra, PUFA-derived alkoxyl radical adducts were modeled by various alkoxyl radical adducts. For the first time, we synthesized a wide range of DMPO adducts with primary and secondary alkoxyl radicals. It was found that many ESR spectra previously assigned as DMPO/peroxyl radical adducts based on their close similarity to the ESR spectrum of the DMPO/superoxide radical adduct, in conjunction with their insensitivity to superoxide dismutase, are indeed alkoxyl radical adducts. We have reassigned the PUFA alkylperoxyl radical adducts to their corresponding alkoxyl radical adducts. Using hyperfine coupling constants of model DMPO/alkoxyl radical adducts, the computer simulation of DMPO/PUFA alkoxyl radical adducts was performed. It was found that the trapped, oxygen-centered PUFA-derived radical is a secondary, chiral alkoxyl radical. The presence of a chiral carbon atom leads to the formation of two diastereomers of the DMPO/PUFA alkoxyl radical adduct. Therefore, attempted spin trapping of the PUFA peroxyl radical by DMPO at room temperature leads to the formation of the PUFA alkoxyl radical adduct.

Abstract
The spin trap 5-(diethoxyphosphoryl)-5-methyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DEPMPO) forms a superoxide adduct with a half-life of almost 15 min. DEPMPO is very hydrophilic and its use for the detection of radicals in the lipid phase (lipid-derived radicals and superoxide generated in the lipid phase) is therefore limited due to its very low concentration in the lipid phase. For the detection of lipid-derived radicals, three derivatives of DEPMPO with increasing degree of lipid solubility have been investigated: 5-(di-n-propoxyphosphoryl)-5-methyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DPPMPO), 5-(di-n-butoxyphosphoryl)-5-methyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DBPMPO), and 5-(bis-(2-ethylhexyloxy)phosphoryl)-5-methyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DEHPMPO). As compared with the spin trap DMPO, the half-lives of the respective superoxide adducts were clearly higher in aqueous solutions of the spin traps, which facilitates qualitative ESR measurements. The stability of the superoxide spin adducts formed with the various lipophilic spin traps in aqueous buffer were similar to those observed with DEPMPO (half-life: 7-11 min.). In model experiments using Fe(3+)-catalyzed nucleophilic addition of methanol or tert-butanol to the respective spin trap the respective alkoxyl radical adducts were formed in aqueous solution as transient species in the presence of high concentrations of the alcohol. Upon dilution with water the alkoxyl group was substituted by water, giving the respective hydroxyl adduct of the spin trap. Care must therefore be taken when Fenton-type reactions are used for the generation of radicals such as the use of Fe(2+) complexes with phosphate or DTPA or inactivation of iron by addition of "Desferal" (Novarti's Pharma GmbH, Vienna, Austria) after a short incubation time. Addition of Fe(2+) under anaerobic conditions to an aqueous suspension of linoleic acid hydroperoxide and the spin trap resulted in the detection of three different species: a carbon-centered radical adduct, an acyl radical adduct, and the hydroxyl adduct. In the presence of oxygen a different species was observed with DEPMPO, DPPMPO, and DBPMPO, which was only slightly suppressed upon the addition of SOD, possibly the respective spin adduct of either the alkylperoxyl radical or, in analogy to DMPO, a secondary alkoxyl radical.

Abstract
Analysis of the reaction between 2'-deoxyadenosine and 13-hydroperoxylinoleic acid by liquid chromatography/constant neutral loss mass spectrometry revealed the presence of two major products (adducts A and B). Adduct A was shown to be a mixture of two isomers (A(1) and A(2)) that each decomposed with the loss of water to form adduct B. The mass spectral characteristics of adduct B were consistent with the substituted 1, N(6)-etheno-2'-deoxyadensoine adduct 1' '-[3-(2'-deoxy-beta-D-erythro-pentafuranosyl)-3H-imidazo[2, 1-i]purin-7-yl]heptan-2' '-one. Adducts A(1), A(2), and B were formed when 2'-deoxyadenosine was treated with synthetic 4-oxo-2-nonenal, which suggested that it was formed by the breakdown of 13-hydroperoxylinoleic acid. A substantial increase in the rate of formation of adducts A(1), A(2), and B was observed when 13-hydroperoxylinoleic acid and 2'-deoxyadenosine were incubated in the presence of Fe(II). Thus, 4-oxo-2-nonenal was most likely formed by a homolytic process. Although adducts A(1), A(2), and B were formed in the reaction between 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal and 2'-deoxyadenosine, a number of additional products were observed. This suggested that 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal was not a precursor in the formation of 4-oxo-2-nonenal from 13-hydroperoxylinoleic acid. This study has provided additional evidence which shows that 4-oxo-2-nonenal is a major product of lipid peroxidation and that it reacts efficiently with DNA to form substituted etheno adducts.

Abstract
Primary radicals were generated by UV photolysis of samples of trilinolein, at 77 K and under a controlled atmosphere. The resulting EPR spectra clearly show that the amount of radicals is dependent on the purity of the lipid, the exposure to visible light in the presence of a photosensitizer and oxygen, and, finally, the presence of an antioxidant. These solid state EPR experiments indicate that if all of the elements for the production of singlet oxygen (Rose Bengal, molecular oxygen, and visible light) are not present, primary radicals are practically not generated. They also point out the various steps of the oxidation mechanism: formation of singlet oxygen, which reacts with the lipid to form a hydroperoxide; and photolytic formation of the hydroxyl radical, which reacts with the frozen lipid to generate primary lipidic radicals. This constitutes a new method for investigating lipid oxidation and studying the influence of photosensitizers and molecules that are likely to react with singlet oxygen.

Abstract
Effects of some polyphenols and their related compounds (chlorogenic acid, caffeic acid, quinic acid, ferulic acid, gallic acid, D-(+)-catechin, D-(-)-catechin, 4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzoic acid, salicylic acid, L-dopa, dopamine, L-adrenaline, L-noradrenaline, o-dihydroxybenzene, m-dihydroxybenzene, and p-dihydroxybenzene) on the formation of 13-hydroperoxide octadecadienoic (13-HPODE) acid-derived radicals (pentyl radical and octanoic acid radical) were examined. The ESR spin trapping showed that chlorogenic acid, caffeic acid, gallic acid, D-(+)-catechin, D-(-)-catechin, L-dopa, dopamine, L-adrenaline, L-noradrenaline, and o-dihydroxybenzene inhibited the overall formation of 13-HPODE acid-derived radicals in the reaction mixture of 13-HPODE with ferrous ions. The ESR peak heights of alpha-(4-pyridyl-1-oxide)-N-tert-butylnitrone (4-POBN)/13-HPODE-derived radical adducts decreased to 46+/-4% (chlorogenic acid), 54+/-2% (caffeic acid), 49+/-2% (gallic acid), 55+/-1% [D-(+)-catechin], 60+/-3% [D-(-)-catechin], 42+/-1% (L-dopa), 30+/-2% (dopamine), 49+/-2% (L-adrenaline), 24+/-2% (L-noradrenaline), and 54+/-5% (o-dihydroxybenzene) of the control, respectively. The high performance liquid chromatography-electron spin resonance (HPLC-ESR) and high performance liquid chromatography-electron spin resonance-mass spectrometries (HPLC-ESR-MS) showed that caffeic acid inhibited the formation of octanoic acid radical and pentyl radical to 42+/-2% and 52+/-7% of the control, respectively. On the other hand, the polyphenols and their related compounds had few inhibitory effects on the radical formation in the presence of EDTA. Visible absorbance measurement revealed that all the polyphenols exhibiting the inhibitory effect chelate ferrous ions. Above results indicated that the chelation of ferrous ion is essential to the inhibitory effects of the polyphenols.

Abstract
Production of free radicals from acetaldehyde oxidation by enzymes and cellular fractions is a well-known process. The toxic effects of acetaldehyde, however, are usually attributed to its reactions with biomolecules to produce adducts. Here, we demonstrate that hypothetical adducts produced from attack of acetaldehyde by two important biological oxidants, peroxynitrite and hydrogen peroxide, decompose to produce acetate, formate, and methyl radicals. Acetate, formate, nitrate, and nitrite were characterized and quantified by capillary electrophoresis. Radicals were detected and quantified by the EPR spectra produced in the presence of spin traps 3, 5-dibromo-4-nitrosobenzenesulfonic acid and 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide. Kinetic studies and product analysis were performed at different pHs. The results demonstrate that production of methyl radicals during oxidation of acetaldehyde by hydrogen peroxide was strictly dependent on the presence of iron(II) and occurred via two routes. One involved acetaldehyde attack by the hydroxyl radical to produce the acetyl radical that decomposes to methyl radical and carbon monoxide. The other route involved acetaldehyde attack by deprotonated hydrogen peroxide to produce a hypothetical intermediate that reductively cleaves via the action of present iron(II) to produce radicals. The latter mechanism predominates in the case of peroxynitrite, but radical formation does not require metal ions. Most of the hypothetical adduct produced from acetaldehyde and peroxynitrite (k = 680 M(-)(1) s(-)(1) at pH 7.4 and 37 degrees C) decays to nitrate and regenerates the aldehyde [Uppu, R. M., et al. (1997) Chem. Res. Toxicol. 10, 1331], but about 30% of it produces acetate, formate, and methyl radicals. Part of these oxidized products result from beta-scission and 1,2-shift reactions of the 1-hydroxyethoxyl radical which, together with nitrogen dioxide, freely diffuses from the adduct (20% yields). The results provide yet another example of the metal-independent free radical reactivity of peroxynitrite and may be relevant to the toxic effects associated with heavy drinking and diabetes.

Abstract
The anion radicals of 4-nitroquinoline N-oxide (4-NQO) and 4-nitrosoquinoline N-oxide (4-NOQO) carcinogens were detected and characterized by electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy. The structures of the radical intermediates were examined by density functional theory (DFT) at the level of hybrid unrestricted uBecke3LYP. The formation of superoxide anion radical catalyzed by flavin-containing enzymes such as cytochrome P450 reductase or xanthine oxidase in the presence of 4-NQO or 4-nitroquinoline N-oxide was studied by spin-trapping experiments. In this case, the ESR signal of the 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DMPO)-superoxide radical adduct was observed, and its formation was inhibited by superoxide dismutase (SOD). No ESR signal was detected when the two-electron-transferring flavoenzyme DT-diaphorase (NADPH-quinone oxidoreductase) was used. The above is consistent with a one-electron reduction in the metabolism of these nitro compounds to anion free radicals by various flavoenzyme reductases.
